When the module performs a restart operation, it requests configuration
information from the ControlLogix processor. This data is transferred to the
module in specially formatted write block (output image). The module will poll for
the block by setting the required write block number in a read block (input
image). Refer to Module Configuration for a description of the data objects used
with the blocks and the ladder logic required. The following topics show the
format of the blocks for configuration.
